Gold Price Forecast: Affirming Gold Rise And Dow Index Fall 2019-2020

A Challenging Question

Recently I was asked by a very dear European friend of royal heritage regarding the direction of gold price. Now this gentleman is an astute investor in major global sectors. So I have to do proper research before I can answer him.

After my detail analysis, I have to conclude what several wise investors including Paul Tudor Jones and Ray Dalio had already done since June by sifting some of their assets into gold. I will also affirm my earlier analysis of July 4 published on this website.

My near term forecast for 2019-2020:

• Gold will rise to rise to $2200 per oz, then to $2500 before the end of 2020.

• Dow index will fall to 22,000, then to 17,000 before 2020.

The ongoing US-China trade war does not help. The more recent Hong Kong situation may make our forecasts too conservative.

Our July 4 Forecast

Chart 1 – Golden Line Forecast Revisited

The current rise is similar to the gold rise in 1979-1980! We also expect high inflation which will be caused by interest cuts accompanies by resumption of Quantitative Easing (QE’s).

Near-Term Forecasts: DOW and GOLD

Chart 2 – DOW & Volatility

• Our favorite indicator for future direction of Dow Index is shown above.

• Dow index does not prefer high volatility ($VIX). The ratio DOW to VIX usually precedes the fall of Dow by 1-2 years. Hence, we have ample warnings.

• Do we think the global turmoil will decrease in the near future?
